Is an oven the same thing as a stove?

The stove commonly refers to the whole cooking appliance which typically features four burners on the cook-top surface for quickly cooking food like soup, pasta, sauces, and boiling water. The built in oven beneath, used for longer spells of cooking, roasting, and sometimes grilling can work in tandem with the cook-top as part of a stove, and on its own as a separate appliance.
